About me

Hi I'm Janna and I am a book whore! I started this blog after being a part of another for years. While being a big blog may be nice I like to stay true to me having a love for books, that's why I blog. I love books and I want to share that love with my readers of this blog. I love to read, books are my escape and a huge part of my life besides my husband and two children. I am honest and sometimes sassy in my reviews but never mean. Some of my favorite authors include Kristen Ashley, Penelope Douglas, T.M. Frazier, M.N. Forgy, Rachel Van Dyken, Meghan March and Vi Keeland to only name a few!

ARC Review! Big Package by Opal Carew

I missed the last bus to my sister’s for Christmas, and now I'm stranded in a bus station—in the middle of a blizzard—with a giant package covered in naughty wrapping paper.

Then he shows up: Kalen Welles, the football star from my high school fantasies—and offers me a ride.

Just when the car is getting cozy, the roads get shut down due to snow.

Luckily there’s a nearby cabin where we can hole up for the night.

A warm fireplace, cozy blankets, pent-up longing we both spent years ignoring… maybe I’ll be able to unwrap Kalen's big package before Christmas morning.

But when the snow clears and the ice melts, will the former football star and the shy nerd finally get a happy ending?

Unwrap this sexy holiday story from Opal Carew!

Opal Carew is fun. And, there is a certain expectation when you read one of her books. Yes, they are a formula...but it is a fun formula. Guy with a big package meets a girl with a big package. Stuff happens, sex happens. It is fun.

Holly and Kalen were interesting together. I liked that they had a history, I liked that there was a prior attraction between them. It made the story work. And, the snowbound at the holiday made sense...it didn't seem overly contrived.

The wrapping paper, the contents of the box...it was all fun. It was lighthearted. It was enjoyable. I am not one for holiday books, but in this case, I made an exception...because I knew I was going to enjoy it. And I did.

The book is short, there isn't really a lot to say about it. It was well written, the pacing was decent, the story was fun and I believed the characters.
